Engineered to deliver exceptional FAD (Free Air Delivery), low vibration levels, and superior electrical efficiency. Browse our top custom configurations.
In thermal engineering and plant infrastructure, the 11kW rotary screw air compressor is highly regarded. Representing exactly 15 horsepower, it balances the line between light utility workshops and heavy automated manufacturing facilities.
Unlike piston compressors that rely on reciprocating strokes and suffer from massive heat generation and friction losses, the rotary screw employs an asymmetric 5:6 profile rotor design. This enables continuous, pulseless flow, minimizing volumetric slippage and delivering a high Free Air Delivery (FAD) per unit of electrical input.
Modern engineering demands that factories control operational expenses. At 11kW, selecting a Permanent Magnet (PM) Variable Speed Drive (VSD) system rather than a fixed-speed configuration allows the compressor to adjust its FAD from 30% to 100% depending on systemic load demands. This reduces idle energy wastage by up to 35%.
Technical Insight: An 11kW compressor typically outputs 1.5 to 1.7 m³/min (53 to 60 CFM) at a nominal pressure of 8 bar. For high-precision laser cutting operations requiring 16 bar to 20 bar, these systems must be configured with high-pressure air-ends and heavy-duty separation vessels, delivering clean, dry compressed air that ensures dross-free edge finishes.
Why international brands and industrial enterprises choose OEM/ODM production in Jiading District, Shanghai, and greater China sourcing hubs.
Chinese air compressor factories sit at the core of an integrated component ecosystem. From high-precision casting facilities to advanced electronic inverter factories, every element of an 11kW system—such as the IP55 permanent magnet motor, the digital PLC controller, and the minimum pressure valves—is sourced locally. This reduces turnaround times for customized ODM request layouts.
Reputable factories utilize state-of-the-art testing stations compliant with ISO 1217 Annex C guidelines. Every unit undergoes multi-hour continuous run testing under load to certify structural pressure limits, vibration signatures, and thermal performance parameters before global shipping container packaging.
Whether your operations require custom dual-voltage motors (e.g., 220V/3Ph/60Hz, 380V/3Ph/50Hz, or 460V/3Ph/60Hz), custom paint colors, integrated IoT telemetry models, or complete "four-in-one" skids with air receivers and desiccant dryers, China ODM manufacturers can adapt standard assembly lines to fulfill tailored client specs.
Discover how the 11kW screw air compressor acts as the vital mechanical lung for critical applications worldwide.
For laser operators running high-speed, high-density fiber lasers, dry and pressurized air is a cost-effective substitute for nitrogen. The ODM 20bar Screw Air Compressor is engineered to supply clean compressed air directly to the cutting head, optimizing production speed while reducing operating costs.
Pneumatic impacts, spray painting booths, and tire mounting machinery demand high continuous air volumes. A 15HP system equipped with an integrated dryer guarantees dry, oil-free air flow that prevents paint blistering and extends tool life cycles.
In electronic component packaging and automated loom factories, standard compressors can introduce oil mist that ruins delicate raw materials. Using oil-free air blowers or high-performance filtration systems ensures absolute purity and process reliability.
Shanghai Honest Compressor Co., Ltd. is a British-owned enterprise. It was founded in early 2004. The production address is located at NO. 355 Jiajian Branch Road, Malu Town, Jiading District, Shanghai, China.
We are a large-scale manufacturing enterprise specializing in the production of twin-screw air compressors in China. At the same time, it is also an important supplier of air system solutions, providing various types of piston air compressors (low pressure, medium pressure, high pressure, oil-free air compressors), screw air compressor systems (3KW-480KW various screw air compressors, gas separation equipment, refrigerant compressors, cold dryers, filters, ceramic membrane filtration systems) and various equipment accessories and consumables.
Discover our proprietary high-efficiency rotary screw components engineered to meet rigid CE & ISO certification protocols.
From basic air generation to connected, smart utility ecosystems. Industry standards are shifting rapidly to meet global ESG regulations.
Friction losses inside standard motors represent a major operational cost. Advanced ODM manufacturers have integrated permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) matching IE4 and IE5 standards. These maintain peak efficiency even at low rotational speeds, avoiding the winding degradation associated with older asynchronous motors.
Modern PLC systems do not just display pressure gauges; they analyze dew point trends, current curves, and thermal fluctuations. Through Modbus and integrated IoT protocols, operators receive proactive maintenance alerts before minor seal issues cause systemic pressure drop shutdowns.
Under international environmental policies (like the EU F-Gas Regulation), refrigeration dryers are moving away from older refrigerants. Our integrated air systems feature R134A, R407c, or R410A refrigerants, satisfying both performance targets and green compliance guidelines.
Ensure you address these core factors to verify that you are working with an authentic industrial-grade factory:
Common technical questions regarding the configuration, maintenance, and sourcing of 11kW (15HP) rotary screw air compressors.
Fixed-speed compressors operate on a load/unload cycle. Even when no air is required, they run idle, consuming up to 30-40% of their full power load. A Permanent Magnet VSD compressor adjusts the motor speed in real time to match demand. This eliminates idling, maintains stable line pressure within ±0.1 bar, and reduces energy consumption by up to 35%.
Precision fiber laser cutting requires clean, dry, pressurized air. Dust, water droplets, or oil mist can damage the focus lens and cause cut imperfections. The air system must provide a pressure of 16 to 20 bar, a pressure dew point below 5°C, and residual oil content under 0.01 mg/m³.
We recommend a tank capacity of 300L to 500L. A larger air receiver acts as an energy buffer, reduces motor start-stop cycles, cools down the air to separate bulk moisture, and handles transient peak demands without system pressure drops.
For standard operating conditions, the oil filter and air filter elements should be replaced every 2,000 hours. The air-oil separator element should be replaced every 3,000 to 4,000 hours. Using high-quality synthetic lubricants extends service life and maintains system performance.
Yes, our industrial air systems feature programmable PLC controllers with RS485 interfaces that support Modbus RTU protocols. This allows operators to monitor parameters like pressure, discharge temperature, and motor currents, and integrate the compressor with centralized plant management software.
